CH ROBINSON

I'll just leave this here. I can't believe they have such a small sales team, and they just fired half of it.

C.H. Robinson slashes over 50% of US sales team, sources say - FreightWaves

 

Good intel for a new carrier.

 

I typed 'those are your bread and butter as a new carrier' but spell check screwed that up and I didn't catch it. Now I can't edit.

 

With CHR, it is better to find a dedicated rep. They can help you with a rate but not more than a day before. They can pay just as good as anyone else when the time is right. Disregard their "book it now" rate nonsense.
I don't get why people think that such and such broker would not pay according to the market conditions, like they could afford not to move the freight. They'll pay you, if they have to.

 

I'm fairly new to having my authority. What is a good way to find these kind of brokerages?

 

Look on DAT or ITS and get to work. You'll figure it out when you find any.

 

This ^^^^

 

They want it easy like you're supposed to give up your contacts or something like that? The funny part is a broker I think sucks might be your favorite or vice versa. So you do that, give someone else your hard earned contacts, and it might not even work out for them. But yeah, put the work in and figure it out is the right answer.

 

okay thanks for the info
